Unconvincing in a stint with trainer Mathieu Mottier in the spring before joining Jerome Huguet's stable this autumn. Seldom far from a fault but didn't go unnoticed when finishing 6th over 2850m at Feurs on 29 October

Consistent veteran at the top of his has game. Won his only Quinte+ appearance and confirmed his form/well-being by finishing 3rd over 2700m at Lyon-La Soie on 11 November. Attractive outsider

Honest hard-knocker with sound/consistent form references in the South-West, especially without his irons (unshod). Well-beaten 14th (shod) on this course over 2100m on 17 November but shouldn't be underestimated racing barefoot

Runner-up on turf at Carentan in mid-July but largely disappointing for the better part of a year now. Showed signs of improvement when 6th over 2775m at Les Sables on 21 October - the booking of Alexandre Abrivard catches the eye

Race Overview

HOCHE (8) has raced and won 3 times on this track and is good value to safeguard that 100% track record on Vincennes' classic course. He runs in the same shoeing configuration with which he achieved those victories. HACKER LOVER (12), faultless without his shoes (8 wins and three 2nds in 11 unshod appearances), consistent trotters HONEY KING (14) and HASUR DAIRPET (13), as well as HARMONY DU RABUTIN (4) and HIGH PROPULSION (5) comes next by order of preference to take on the selection.

Selection:

8 - 12 - 14
